Conundrum:
Free people are not equal. Equal people are not free.
A gun is like a parachute. If you need one, and don’t have one, you’ll probably never need one again.
The definition of the word Conundrum is: Something that is puzzling or confusing.
Here are six conundrums of socialism:
In the United States of America:
1. America is capitalist and greedy – yet half of the population is subsidized.
2. Half of the population is subsidized – yet they think they are victims.
3. They think they are victims – yet their representatives run the government.
4. Their representatives run the government – yet the poor keep getting poorer.
5. The poor keep getting poorer – yet they have things that people in other countries only dream about.
6. They have things that people in other countries only dream about – yet they want America to be more like those other countries.
Think about it! And that, my friends, pretty much sums up the USA in the 21st Century. Makes you wonder who is doing the math.
These three, short sentences tell you a lot about the direction of our current government and cultural environment:
1. We are advised to NOT judge ALL Muslims by the actions of a few lunatics, but we are encouraged to judge ALL gun owners by the actions of a few lunatics.
Funny how that works. And here’s another one worth considering…
2. Seems we constantly hear about how Social Security is going to run out of money. But we never hear about welfare or food stamps running out of money?
What’s interesting is the first group “worked for” their money, but the second didn’t.
Think about it…..
And Last but not least:
3. Why are we cutting benefits for our veterans, no pay raises for our military and cutting our army to a level lower than before WWII, but we are not stopping the payments or benefits to illegal aliens.
Am I the only one missing something?
Credo quia absurdum, I believe it because it is absurd.
Had a long chat yesterday with a gentlemen who recently fled Venezuela. That I think would cure just about anybody.

Free people are equal with regard to freedom.
People are not equal in terms of characteristics and traits. Everyone has different strengths and weaknesses, and if diversity is our strength, as liberals love to say, then those differences are to be celebrated and not regulated.
[ Had a long chat yesterday with a gentlemen who recently fled Venezuela. That I think would cure just about anybody. ]
We need to import more people fleeing commie countries as long as we export/deport those entering our country illegally and those “refugees” that are part of the demographic islamic conquest...
Tagline...

Did you ask him what party he’d register with when he becomes a US citizen?
But as some people in congress are exempt from the laws they passed, does that mean we are still equal?/S
Unfortunately not.
We have serious fundamental problems in America.
The freedom that exists in America in 2015 is at best an illusion and at worst a lie.
Of course the answer to all of these seeming conundrums is that Dems have a vested interest in the results. Dems need to please their voters.
For later.

No, I’ve thought about the same things. Work hard, take care of yourself, live within your means, save money and your the problem.
Free people are not equal. Equal people are not free.
On no. 3. Our veterans are our Military. The illegals are part of Obama’s private army.
ADD TO THE LIST:
“SOCIALISM: Ideas so good, they have to be mandatory...”
You should post a transcript. America needs to know. Our schoolchildren up through college are fed pap and think America is founded on evil.
